Linda Ronstadt and the late James Ingram also recorded a pop version of the song that was very popular when the film came out, peaking at 2 on the Billboard Hot chart in March and 4 on the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart. The song had a lasting legacy in Hollywood, one that it doesn't often get traced back to. Disney which is the animation subsidiary of RKO Radio Pictures began to include songs like this with The Little Mermaid , and continues to utilize the trope to the present day.
Steven Spielberg, the producer of An American Tail , invited songwriters Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil to collaborate with the late James Horner on four songs for the film's soundtrack, to be completed in a four week timeframe.
The composers "felt no pressure to come up with a radio-friendly hit" and were surprised when Spielberg felt "Somewhere Out There" had Top 40 hit potential and recruited world renowned recording artists, Linda Ronstadt and the late James Ingram, to record a pop version of the song for the film's closing credits.
Tanya Mousekewitz also sings this song when she gets older, and is shown singing it out a window at the beginning of the film. But as she sings, she gets food thrown at her after two failed attempts and always getting interrupted on the lyric, "and loving me". An American Tail is widely regarded as one of the saddest animated films ever created and the single saddest that Don Bluth directed. In the film, cats play the role of the persecutors and they represent persecution as a whole.
In contrast, mice are pictured as the persecuted. For example, it is narrated that Papa Mousekewitz, a Russian Jew, lost his father in a cat attack. However, he never specifies if the cats in question were Cossacks or not. Artist: Disney. Rating: Somewhere out there, Beneath the pale moonlight, Someone's thinking of me, And loving me tonight. Somewhere out there, Someone's saying a prayer, That we'll find one another, In that big somewhere out there.
And even though I know how very far apart we are, It helps to think we might be wishing on the same bright star, And when the night wind starts to sing a lonesome lullaby, It helps to think we're sleeping underneath the same big sky! Somewhere out there, If love can see us through, Then we'll be together, Somewhere out there, Out where dreams Come true Tags on Somewhere Out There.
